Sorry it did not work for you. I liked it a lot. Thus is life.

...and shall not be buying the video.

Conversely I haven't been to see the movie and I don't plan to buy the video either.

It may well happen that I will possibly watch it in the years to come if I sit in front of my SKY TV for too long.

I can wait.

Good news all round then, its unlikely to be released on VHS.

Saw it, liked it but will buy DVD as I think 3D might have been a mistake for me.

I went to see it with my family. We all enjoyed it, a good action film, a nice family trip out and we will buy the dvd.

Did anyone spot Daniel Craig?

He was Stormtrooper JB-007. True. Check it out for yourself.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Something to look out for in the DVD, like spotting Stan Lee and Hitchcock in their films.

Quite enjoyed it, even though in a nutshell it was the Death Star Trench Run (from Ep.IV) combined with the wannabe Jedi searching for and finding a Master (from Ep V.) and the commando raid to disable the shields of DSII (Ep.VI).


My main complaint was that after all the hype, Captain Phasma did *cough! cough!*...... Not much.
Well that went down like a lead baboon......

Hmmm, Stan Lee is never hard to spot.

TBH I missed him in The Incredible Spiderman and also in The Wolverine.

Which one was captain Phasma?


The whopping great Storm Trooper in all the chrome clobber  :D Or, Brienne if you've watched Game of Thrones?

See what you mean. Thought she looked much more like Darth Vader than Solo's son. Maybe they're saving her up for the next outing. She is very good as Brienne.

I think it really was a poor film.
It builds up good then there is a real rythme problem.
SPOILERS ahead.















So : What if they didn't spend the whole movie telling us who Kylo Ren is and just brought us to the bridge scene without any info.
It would have been wonderful : "Wait, how does he knows hi name ? Wait, WTF ?"
Instead, it sounds like a film for mental challenged young children where they have to explain everything.

The scene with the hologram showing you how bigger the new super weapon is compared to the old one ? Really ? Some guy spend some time displaying an hologram to say : "Look, it is 10 times bigger than the old one ?"

The "aircraft' battles are nice but I really feel they raped my childhood.
